We place a large importance on education in this country, but it does not appear that the quality of education is important. You can get a PHD in basket weaving or some other worthless pursuit. Our education system focuses on social engineering instead of the basics of what it takes to survive in a world you would want to live in.
Education does not mean knowledge. In the old days some folks were referred to by saying, “He’s been educated beyond his intelligence.” Knowledge is education that is useful to one’s self and everyone else. Knowledge requires education with experience and understanding that the world is not going to be your happy or safe place and you must adapt to making the world better in a peaceful logical manner.
Unless our education system reverts back to teaching the 3 r’s, we will continue to fall behind in knowledge.
Knowledge is power.
